Maybe not stronger, but give him more depth. In my plot to a script I have in mind, the villain has problems in life because of autism, and that turns him into a criminal maniac, unleashing on the world, because it won't accept him the same way, as more common people. He is smart enough to cover his tracks, and the cops have a hard time catching him.
For the main detective I have two ideas. I can either make him autistic as well, and that causes him to be able to identify with the villain on a more personal level. Or I can make it so he's not, and that causes him to have to go outside his heart to try to get into the villains head. Either I go with the it takes one to know one theme, or it doesn't take one to know one, but unlike other people, he can identify with the villains problem.
Which is stronger? I'm thinking maybe the second but not sure.
